Meta-analysis of mortality following Subthalamic and Pallidal deep brain stimulation for patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of this meta-analysis is to compare mortality after subthalamic (STN) and pallidal (GPi) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for patients with Parkinson's disease…Battery consumption and need for replacement in patients with Parkinson disease treated with interleaved deep brain stimulation
Objective: To evaluate battery life in patients managed with unilateral or bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) interleaved deep brain stimulation (DBS) Background: DBS is a common…Clinical utility of chronic directional subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulatoin in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Here, we present our 3-month clinical experience with subthalamic directional DBS in treating Parkinson’s disease (PD) symptoms. Background: Directional Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is…GammaKnife subthalamotomy for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the feasibility of GammaKnife subthalamotomy in Parkinson's disease Background: Chronic STN stimulation is an established treatment for complicated PD. Bilateral subthalamotomy may…The non-motor symptoms in Parkinsons’s disease patients treated with STN DBS: the follow up study
Objective: The aim of the study was to follow-up the effect of STN DBS on motor and non-motor symptoms in aPD. Background: A comprehensive assessment…UPDRS III score and RS latency can determine the possible neuromodulative role of STN DBS in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of STN DBS on the changes of UPDRS scale and RS parameters (OFF phase)…Programming deep brain stimulation in the globus pallidus internus for treatment of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease: experience at the University of Kentucky
Objective: To report deep brain stimulation (DBS) programming parameters and experiences in patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD) implanted with globus pallidus internus (GPi) leads.…STN DBS can temporarily improve balance disorders in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of STN DBS on balance disorders in PD patients. Background: Subthalamic nucleus deep brain…A Novel Deep Brain Stimulation Programming Paradigm for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To report the outcome of a novel interleaving stimulation (ILS) DBS programming paradigm (PP). Background: DBS of the STN using conventional high frequency (130-185Hz)…The battery longevity of implantable pulse generators (IPG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is affected by IPG model, number of previous IPG replacements and stimulation energy delivered.
Objective: To determine the effects of stimulation parameters, IPG model and the number of previous IPG replacements on IPG battery longevity. Background: For some patients rechargeable…
